+1 on Southwest and would add that Alaska Airlines is also very good.

 

New charges to expect on your next flight:

My collegues use to say that if you are on Delta Airlines and you get peanuts and a coke, you must be flying first class.

 

Here's a flight attendant that makes the instructions a little more fun.

^Yep, I almost expect that to happen.

 

Now that does make it more fun. :stomp:

 

Southwest is good.
I like United when I fly enough to get into the premium coach and exit row.

Frontier and northwest are flying cattle cars.
no leg room whatsoever.
I don't know when they poured the concrete in the Frontier seats but it was the most uncomfortable seat I have ever been in.

 

I flew British First Class from Seattle to London a few years ago (free upgrade). Now that was a treat. Too bad I'm not likely to experience that again on my income level.

 

Year's ago BA ran a special, if you paid for a 1st class ticket from New York to London, you received a one way ticket on the Concorde. Unfortunately, in those days, all my flight originated in Europe and in order to get the Concorde flight, it had to originate in New York.

 

I think Southwest is OK. Lufthansa will do. Aeroflot international is OK, but avoid domestic legs. Years ago when I flew a whole lot, I always thought the Japanese, Singapore, and Quantas were the best by a wide margin.
